Baba, to love You is such a liila. Only if I do not think about Your
greatness and grandeur, then by Your grace I can get Your intimate
closeness– I love You. But when I think that You are so vast and that You
are the Supreme Lord of this entire universe, then I feel that You are very
far from me. Baba by Your divine grace I get You in my dreams & I hold You
closely in my dhyana. But when I open my eyes and look around then You are
beyond my reach. Baba, Your liila is unfathomable.

Baba, You are so gracious. Baba, You have bestowed upon me Your
abundant, boundless, and overflowing grace. And with my two small hands
cupped together, I try to catch it all; but it is far more than I can
hold– there is endless waste. Baba Your grace knows no limits. Baba,
still today Your grace is showering upon me.

O’ my dearmost, my world is composed only of You and me. Our love is
everything. Without You, my existence is meaningless. Except You there is
none else in my life. Baba You are my everything. Baba, You have all the
qualities– from the three worlds. But if You forget me then You will lose
You Your attributions, You will lose Your divine qualities.

Baba, when I do not think about Your grand attributions and greatness,
then I feel that You are very close and loving. And when I think about Your
greatness, then You are distant. Baba, Your liila is indescribable…

Note: For there to be love then both the parties involved must be on equal
standing. If, however, one is feeling that the other is high etc, then love
cannot develop.

Namaskar,
The glorious event of Ananda Vanii is approaching, it is going to happen.
Because every Ananda Margiis is aware how Baba created one grand, dharmic
tradition of delivering Ananda Vaniis on New Years Day. But since 1991,
these Ananda Vaniis got a serious blow. In place of true Ananda Vaniis
certain fake Ananda Vaniis took their place.

And one type of politics is also played all the time in the selection of
these quotes as Ananda Vanii. Whoever was in power they selected some
quotes in their favour. So in true sense the enthusiasm and vibration and
thrill of new Ananda Vaniis which everyone was experiencing pre-1990 is
gone; it remains just as a dream.

Anyway some fake Ananda Vaniis we are going to see as usual. So we have to
be very careful to root out this dogma. And on dharmic ground we should
embrace those original Ananda Vaniis alone. Because those original Ananda
Vaniis have their own beauty, charm, attraction, and greatness.
Here is some further explanation about all this.

First off, the fake Ananda Vaniis, which are supplied by H and B group
every New Year’s Day and Ananda Purnima are not true Ananda Vaniis. One
main reason being that Baba’s true Ananda Vaniis are complete unto
themselves-they are self-contained truths that are meant to stand alone.
While the fake Ananda Vaniis issued by Centre are small portions of one
discourse. Means Centre selects some quote that is part of a larger
discourse and treat it as an Ananda Vanii.

This the ruling group has been doing all along since 1991 and so by now
more and more Ananda Margiis are understanding that what those groupist are doing in the name of Ananda Vanii is fraudulent and misleading. Even then they continues on in their negative tradition of issuing their fake,
self-created Ananda Vaniis.

One main reason behind this is that those who are in power, they like to
maintain the status quo. Means they like to remain in power at any cost. To
this end they try to misguide others with all sorts of materials in their
hand. So these fake Ananda Vaniis are one of the “tools of the trade” used
by the ruling party to misguide Margiis.

Or they issue their Fake Ananda Vaniis to fuel the fire of their groupist
hatred toward competing factions. Never are their Fake Ananda Vaniis
given for any dharmic purpose.

Let me explain further, because we Ananda Margiis have a very high regard
for Ananda Vanii because since 1956 up to 1990 we received the Ananda Vanii
as a beacon light of forward movement and fight against injustice.

For example here are some of BABA’s true Ananda Vaniis.

TRUE ANANDA VANIIS

“A sa’dhaka is verily a soldier…” – Ananda Vanii #2

“…O human beings march ahead — let the song of march be your only slogan.” – Ananda Vanii #3

“…To jeopardise the unity of the human race by creating factions is not
the purpose of Dharma. …to fight against them is what is sa’dhana’.” – Ananda Vanii #4

“…We shall have to remain ever vigilant that the darkness of petty
self-interest may not shroud this supreme human treasure…” – Ananda Vanii #7

“…Inspire those who are liars and criminals to live honest lives by
pointing out their defects…” – Ananda Vanii #8

“…Yours should be a pauseless struggle against corruption, hypocrisy and
animality.”
– Ananda Vanii #11

“…Live for your ideology Die for your Ideology.”
– Ananda Vanii #14

“…Life should be sacrificed for Ideology.”
Ananda Vanii #15

“…One must not be guided by any national, caste, linguistic or religious
sentiment and must not tolerate any fissiparous tendency.”
Ananda Vanii #16

“…they (sadhakas) should never tolerate any sense of discrimination.”
Ananda Vanii #17

“…Peace-lovers of the universe must not keep themselves away from fight.”
Ananda Vanii #18

ALL ARE LIKE THAT

Accordingly then all the Ananda Vaniis are moving in this same direction.
These few above just act as a reminder about the greatness of true Ananda
Vaniis. What strong shakti force they have. They give a lot of energy
inside the heart.

By seeing these examples of true Ananda Vaniis, it is clear that they give
a strong message:

(A) Fight against fissiparous tendencies, corruption, hypocrisy.

(B) Build up one healthy human society free from exploitation.

And so many more inspirations…

(C) From 1956 up to 1990 Baba delivered Ananda Vaniis as a beacon light of
forward movement and fight against injustice.

(D) Baba’s true Ananda Vaniis are unparalleled, full of spirit, and they
give the clarion call of marching song and victory. That is the greatness
of Ananda Vanii.

(E) Ananda Vaniis are self-contained pointed truths that are not the part
of any other discourse. They themselves are unique and original discourses.
Each and every Ananda Vanii is like that.

SOME MORE HISTORY

Sarvatmananda and his crew were the ones who first created this dogma of
Fake Ananda Vanii and then later the other group started making them also.
And like that these Fake Ananda Vaniis became one tool. There are many
multiple reasons are there why we should be careful.

Initially the ruling group was trying to create some type of passive
feeling by their fake Ananda Vaniis so that they could control the margiis.
But now everyone has become more cautious, aware and alert so margiis are
avoiding such type of fake Ananda Vaniis. That is why now the various WT
groups leaders collect different type of quotes, which are not only passive
type. The reason is that they want to legitimatize their Fake Ananda Vaniis
and then misuse it in their own selfish way. But after all these are
quotes, not full discourses and not given especially by Guru. Then why
should we accept these fake Ananda Vaniis in place of Baba’s original
beacon light of Ananda Vaniis.

NOT ACCEPT FAKE ANANDA VANIIS

So we must be alert. We should take it seriously that in the name of Ananda
Vanii, the ruling group in Centre has been trying to misguide Margiis. And
if we are vigilant then surely the days of this fake Ananda Vanii tradition
will be numbered. Means then this negative tradition of fake Ananda Vanii
will meet its natural death– just like all wrong practices do.

So to fix the situation of this current fake Ananda Vanii problem and also
to wash away the group conflict for control of power, then we have to take
help from Baba’s real, original treasure of true Ananda Vaniis. Such true
Ananda Vaniis are the eternal source of our inspiration.
Here Baba guides us:

“Struggle against evil forces is life. We have to remember this fact once
again on this threshold of a happy New Year.” (A.V. #9)

Namaskar,
Manindra

NOTE 1: True Ananda Vaniis are unparalleled, full of spirit, and they give
the clarion call of marching song and victory. So that is the greatness of
Ananda Vanii.
But at present in the name of Ananda Vanii, certain quotes from long
discourses have been supplied. And those quotes are being wrongly named as
“Ananda Vanii”.
And this was done to misguide margiis that “Margiis should not bother about
the exploitation and crisis”. Because all along since 1991 the ruling group
in Centre was picking selections for their fake Ananda Vaniis which in one
way or another tell Margiis to look away from the problems in the
organisation and just tend to their own personal spiritual practice-And
keep out of organisational affairs. And these things the ruling was calling
as Ananda Vaniis. But now they got exposed so they changed their strategy
and now they pick anything that goes in the favour of their group interest.
Hence still what they are doing is Fake Ananda Vaniis.

Suppression of Mother Tonue Dangerous

Baba says, “For the all-round welfare and development of human beings,
society needs to follow some fundamental socio-political principles.
Without the firm foundation of such principles, disunity, injustice and
exploitation will flourish.”
“No mother tongue should be suppressed. If a mother tongue is suppressed,
the consequences are most dangerous. Take the example of Pakistan. When
Pakistan was formed, Urdu was declared the national language. But the
actual language position of undivided Pakistan — that is, East Pakistan
and West Pakistan — was that 60% of the population spoke Bengali and 40%
spoke Hindi, Baluchi, Punjabi or Urdu. When Urdu was declared the national
language, East Pakistan revolted and this led to the division of Pakistan.”

(PNS-16, p. 68 & 71)

Note: We all know that this type of suppression is going on not just in
so-called 3rd world countries but also in so-called 1st world countries.

Note 2: Altogether in this chapter Baba puts forth three principles for
“individual and collective progress”. Read PNS-16 chapter 10 for a full
description.
